Unable to activate TC/AP in Steam Terran War Pack - Codes present but wrongly named.
Hi
After a number of years I have finaly got round to breaking the cellophane on a PC DVD copy of Albion Prelude - Terran War Pack. It has been sitting unopened on a dusty shelf since I was given it as an Xmas pressie.
Unfortunately I do not seem to be able to get past the Steam activation stage, I am getting the following:
- Please first activate the original game
- The Product code you've entered requires ownership of another product before activation.
This confuses me because I believe this IS the original game. I was led to believe that this pack contained both Terran Conflict3.2 and Albion Prelude 2.0.
There are two codes in the box, one is for Terran Conflct the other is for Albion Prelude. The Egosoft launcher states that I should install Terran Conflict before Albion Pride and so that is what I am doing, using the Terran Conflict activation key.
Any help would be most gratefully receicved.

Thanks for the responses.
I have now tried the second code, the one that the DVD insert says is for Albion Prelude, this seems to have worked to get the Terran Conflict install going. So I guess that the two keys got reversed in the printing stage.
I will finish the install and then try the Albion Prelude install using the first key.
Thanks so far.

Yes, if you have Steam updates enabled for the game. FAQ.
